Heartfelt thank you to Virginie and John for organizing this conference. While the forums on ProZ.com are an excellent means for exchanging information, discussing in person in the coffee breaks, in bars and restaurants adds a lot to it.

John, as you organized Aix and Paris, you may not need much encouragement for a next event - but it certainly does no harm to say: these events are very much appreciated.
Just as a lot of discussions in the coffee breaks, this thread could be a mixture of French and English.
Thanks again,
Attila

I totally agree: it was great to see again some people from Aix-en-Provence and to meet new colleagues.

Many thanks to Virginie and John for this great event, it was really nice to see some people again and meet so many new faces and make interesting contacts!
The "Who am I" game was indeed a fantastic and funny idea!
Hope to see you all again next year,
CheerZ,

I totally agree with everybody : it was really a great conference! Thank you to John and Virginie for having organized such an event.
I notably enjoyed a lot the opportunity to meet other translators (you!) and to share experience and ideas with them (you again ). This was my first conference through ProZ, but not the last, for sure!

Merci à Atila d' avoir entamé ce fil bilingue. Je peux donc transmettre toute ma reconnaissance pour le travail accompli par John et Virginie pour qu’on puisse se rencontrer.
Je suis arrivée en retard (une mauvaise estimation du trajet) donc j’ai « raté » l’étape d’immersion.
L’organisation a été très bonne et très sincère. Virginie ta prestation autours de la relecture a été très rassurante pour moi et pour les autres participants (les échos du couloir)....

L’organisation a été très bonne et très sincère. Virginie ta prestation autours de la relecture a été très rassurante pour moi et pour les autres participants (les échos du couloir). Anne je suis vraiment ravie qu’il aura une représentante francophone au sein de la communauté en Argentine, cela renforcera les liens communautaires. La prestation de Nicholas a été sans doute sincère mais aussi inquiétante. Ses propos sur la qualité, sur le choix de traducteurs avec les moindres charges laissent à réfléchir ….il me manquait un volet sur les pièges à éviter pour qu'une collaboration soit optimisée pour moi.
Dans tous les cas chapeau pour John et Virginie pour la rencontre.
Mes amitiés : Franela ▲ Collapse

Thanks everyone... all of your positive remarks make us want to start planning for 2009 already! It was a pleasure meeting (re-seeing) you and I'm looking forward to bigger and better in 2009 (your feedback on the questionnaires is invaluable)!
Best,
John
